Sneek Peek Day 3

Good Morning! I hope you are all doing well! Today is the last day of the Lizzie Anne Designs sneek peeks--tomorrow you can put each and every set into your cart...fun, fun, fun! You'll want to stop by the LAD blogto see the other sets being released and then to catch some of the design team work...a lot of fun ideas floating around out there!

I apologize for the quality of the photo--it's a dark soon to be rainy day and I'm not on my personal computer--so thanks for being patient! It will be so wonderful to get ourselfs "put back together..." moving is quite a challenge, isn't it!? But we're having a wonderful time visiting, so all is good!

The stamp set I'm featuring today is called Sweet Treats. It is full of fantastic sweet images and sentiments! I chose to make an icecream cone today--with the inspiration coming from my patterned paper. My paper is another thing that will be avaliable tomorrow, LAD is releasing some digital paper! Oh my word! It's been fun to print these little beauties and have them coordinate with my stamps...love it! They are super resasonable in price and will be on your computer...so you can print them any time you need them! Stay tuned for more of those samples.

I started my card with a Tangerine Tango base. Next in line, So Saffron, and my Sweet Treats Polka-Dot paper. I used my new Eyelet Border punch for a little tangerine lace strip and then added my So Saffron ribbon.

I think you know how much I love this ribbon?! I tied it into a bow-leaving a longer tail on one side and then leaving it connected to the spool, I wrapped it around my panel and determinded how much ribbon I needed to go under the bow, then cut the ribbon and secured it to my card with adhesive. I secured the bow to the card with a few glue dots.

My ice-cream cone was stamped in Tangerine Tango ink onto white cardstock first, then stamped the cone again on So Saffron paper-and then cut the Saffron cone out and attached it to the white cardstock. I stamped my first ice-cream scoop with So Saffron ink--using my STAMJ to get perfect placement. Then I stamped another ice-cream scoop with Tangerine Tango on white cardstock and then cut it out and layered it over the saffron scoop for a little dimension. I layered my ice-cream cone on some So Saffron paper and attache it to my card.

Keeping with the Polka Dots on my paper, I punched some Baja Breeze circles for some added interest. I used the 3/4" circle punch for the top dot, and then added a little vanilla button from my button latte set. The other two dots were punched with my 1" circle punch.

The sentiment "I'm sweet on you" was stamped in Tangerine Tango ink and punched out with my small oval punch. My large oval punch made the So Saffron oval and my new Scalloped Oval punch made the Tangerine Tango scallop for my sweet sentiment! I attached my sentimnet with dimensionals for a bit of a lift!:)

I hope that you enjoy these new stamps as much as I am! This little Sweet Treats set is sure to get a lot of face time! My daughter loves it already! Have a great day friends and thanks for stopping by!
